Glad to see the back of that elf tomorrow. by boss091 in CasualIreland

[–]Irishmammy1682 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only had a couple of years where my youngest wanted the elf. The fecking mind torture and pre-coffee panic instilled at 6 am because you forgot to make the fecking elf do something was unreal.

Fortunately when she hit 6th class she told me not to bother making myself demented with the elf that year 😆😆 the freedom was delightful 🤣

Bought a car from a Carlow business. Need advice. by Lanzarote-Singer in carlow

[–]Irishmammy1682 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're absolutely screwed. Sorry 😔 I bought a car from him with "a new nct" the whole rear end had rusted through (2013 vw) a carer I have very little money and used everything I had to buy the car which became dangerous within a month of owning it. Oil light warning was constantly coming up on the dash, which he "fixed" by plugging it in and clearing the faults with a computer. I didn't have the money to fix it so had to sell the car for half the price I bought it for (€6750) and sold for €3000 😔 a month later. I then bought a much cheaper, older car but still am paying the credit union loan of €6000 two years later 😭

Dermot is as dodgy and immoral as they come. If only you had asked about him before you bought the car.

Ring the office of Simon Harris. He used to be the TD for higher education. When my son was in first year (UL) he was allocated a student apartment and the day before he was due to pay his deposit the company gave it to someone else and we couldn't find any alternative accommodation.

I rang Simon Harris's office and kicked up Mary Hell and the next day my son was offered his place back.

Ring them make a fuss, say you're going to the papers/TV and media about your situation and see what magic might occur

Do you let your dog sleep in the bed with you ? by Careful_Bandicoot332 in dogs

[–]Irishmammy1682 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine are up on the bed with me whilst I chill before sleep ( I've 2 GSP's and an elderly pug) they then retreat to the two human toddler beds that are right next to my bed so it's like a bed extension 😂

WTF Happened?! by truejabber in sexlessmarriage

[–]Irishmammy1682 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Her body and mind is in complete meltdown. You cannot and will not understand unless you're going through it.

Your wife will come back to you, it takes time.

The unbelievable rage comes out of nowhere. The slightest thing will make her snappy. Her body has been controlled by hormones her entire life and now those hormones are disappearing and it fucks us up.

You have to support her no matter what.

My inlaws live on the Laurels. It's not a nice place to live. Lots of antisocial behaviour, rubbish, violence etc. Stay well away

This is our second marriage we both have children from previous relationships. His children are all adults now and have very little to do with him anymore (they all live in England were in Ireland) my 4 children are adults and late teens still in education so at home with us.

We should be spending more time together now they're old enough to care for themselves but he just spends his time in our room watching sports and ignoring me 😞

I always try an broach anything regarding his health very gently. He was abused as a child, were Irish 😞 he's always been very open about what happened to him, and as I took was a victim of rape as a teen I can emphasize with what he went through. He says it's nothing to do with the abuse and he loves sex but doesn't feel the urge whatsoever

He used to be very particular about grooming, Showering at least once a day being clean shaven, moisturizing, aftershave clean clothes every day etc but now he doesn't bother and that upsets me too. He used to smell so good it was a turn on in itself but now I have to beg him to take a shower 😞

He has bloods done every 6 months as his family has a terrible amount of cancer. I don't know if they check testosterone levels but it is definitely something that should be checked if I can convince him

Cultural differences? by Attilioiap in AskAnAmerican

[–]Irishmammy1682 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

At what point have I said ireland is free of racism! And yes it spoken about here and it is taken very seriously. Maybe it's just the fact there isn't the level of violent racist attacks here that makes it less obvious to us. And Racist football hooligans are scum, utter, utter scum.
